Abstract
A method is disclosed for determining a measured quantity, correlated with an extinction, in a medium, including the steps: radiation of light into the medium and measurement of the extinction after a first path length; radiation of light into the medium and measurement of the extinction after a second path length, wherein the first path length differs from the second path length; and determination of the measured quantity correlated with the extinction using the extinction after first path length and extinction after second path length. Additionally disclosed is a sensor arrangement for execution of the method.
